Now that I’m back home, I might subject you to just a little bit of shameless self promotion.  But, some of these are just too cool not to share, including the cover of this years Greatland Graphics 2017 Alaska Time calendar!  I’m always proud to be on the cover of any Greatland Graphics product, as they have been producing high quality work featuring Alaska photographers for many years now!  I photographed these two cubs during last June’s Alaska Bear Photo Tour.

I had so much fun on assignment yesterday at the Alaska Sealife Center.  The staff was awesome, I think I photographed every marine mammal including a baby sea otter.  Spending time up close to their birds was cool too.  I photographed the King Eider in the Arctic last year, was cool to see this amazing bird up close.  The Sealife Center is doing some great work in an attempt to restore the population of Stellar Eiders in Alaska.

Here is one from last summer.

I haven’t posted as much as usual this week or so – really busy working on some exciting projects!  Hope to get back to sharing more images soon!

Here are two of four polar bears who participated in an extended play session in the ocean near our boat last Fall – very entertaining to watch!

I have many photos from earlier this year that I haven’t had a chance to share – including lots of polar bears, hard to beat polar bears, so I thought I would share another one today.
